The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences

This intensive graduate school will cover topics central to the Workshop on Homotopy Theory the following week. This school is designed to give graduate students and early career researchers in related fields a better understanding of each subject, thus enabling the participants to better engage in the subsequent workshop.

Homotopy theory is in the midst of a renaissance as its usefulness in other areas of mathematics is becoming increasingly recognised. From polyhedral products in geometric group theory, to combinatorial methods in group theory, to topological properties of manifolds and spaces of embeddings, to Morava K-theory in symplectic geometry, to simplicial methods in topological data analysis, to a host of applications in mathematical physics - and these name only a few areas of interaction - homotopy theory over the past ten to fifteen years has significantly extended its reach. This program will assemble a wide range of leading experts to discuss the state of the art in current research, both in terms of core fundamental problems and crossover to other areas, and explore exciting new directions.

The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences

This workshop will accelerate development of new directions in chromatic and unstable homotopy theory and in the homotopy theory of polyhedral products. Key will be the exploration of areas of interaction: unstable homotopy theory and polyhedral products have substantial existing intersection while recent developments in chromatic homotopy theory suggest exciting new intersections with unstable homotopy theory and polyhedral products.

Courses and Events for Math Students and Early Career Researchers,    Group Theory

The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences

Group theory and topology have a long and rich history of interaction. This workshop will bring together experts working on different aspects of this interaction in order to share ideas and boost the development of new methods that can be applied to the topology of configuration spaces, braid groups, mapping class groups and manifolds, and spaces of commuting elements.
